North America accounted for a market value of USD 256.9 million in 2021. The rising prevalence of heart disease, the advantages of drug-eluting balloon catheters over drug-eluting stents, and the increasing preference for minimally invasive diseases are the key driving factors in the market.



Drug-eluting balloon catheters, also known as drug-coated balloon catheters, are devices that deliver anti-proliferative drugs through inflated balloons and are processed by the vessel wall. This is done to restore luminal vascularity in order to treat atherosclerosis, in-stent restenosis and to reduce the risk of late thrombosis without implanting a permanent foreign object. The balloon technology relies on the concept of targeted drug delivery, which helps in the rapid healing of the vessel wall and prevents the proliferation of smooth muscle cells.


The global drug-eluting balloon catheters market growth is attributed to the increasing prevalence of heart diseases, increasing preference for minimally invasive procedures, and advantages of balloon catheters over drug-eluting stents (DES).



  • For instance, as per a research article published by American Heart Association, Inc.

This was due to the lockdown restrictions and less number of people going for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Based on revenue, the global market witnessed a decline in its growth by -13.7% in 2020 as compared to the prior year. This was due to the decline in the number of surgical procedures for coronary and peripheral intervention.



  • For instance, as per an article by NCBI published in 2020, in Europe, the COVID-19 pandemic had a major impact on the treatment of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), with a 19.0% reduction in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) procedures.


Moreover, the market players also experienced a decline in the sales of their products due to low demand during the pandemic. This resulted in a decline of the revenues generated from the company’s drug-eluting product portfolio.



  • For instance, Boston Scientific Corporation’s interventional cardiology business segment which includes drug-eluting balloon catheters, generated a revenue of USD 2,299 million in 2020 from its and experienced a decline of -18.4% in its revenue from the prior year.


However, in 2021, with the implementation of COVID-19 guidelines, the release of lockdown restrictions, and mass vaccinations, the number of angioplasty procedures increased globally. This increased the demand for these catheters globally.


LATEST TRENDS


 North America Drug-eluting Balloon Catheters Market Size


Increasing Demand for Minimally-invasive Procedures to Boost the Product Adoption 


Minimally invasive procedures are the techniques that limit the size and number of cuts or incisions that are required during the surgical procedure. This makes the surgeries less painful and helps in fast recovery.


Angioplasty surgeries are also minimally invasive procedures in nature. These procedures are an alternative to open cardiovascular surgeries. They are more beneficial as compared to conventional surgeries as they reduce hospital stays and increase recovery rates.


Furthermore, various advantages of these catheters over drug-eluting stents in targeted drug delivery have increased their use in angioplasty surgeries for various cardiovascular indications. They provide better angiographic and clinical outcomes.



  • For instance, in February 2021, as per the NCBI article, the drug-coated balloon is the most adaptive therapeutics approach for coronary disease due its various advantages including minimal side effects as compared to the drug-eluting stents.

  • Similarly, in December 2021, according to the NEWS Medical Life Sciences article, drug-coated balloon catheter usage with minimally invasive procedures are preferable replacements over risky stent treatment for the myocardial infarction.


Moreover, in Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) procedures, paclitaxel-coated balloon catheters are used. This is a minimally invasive treatment for femoropopliteal long lesions in diabetes. Paclitaxel-coated balloon catheter angioplasty is more efficient as compared to uncoated balloon angioplasty. These factors have been fueling the demand for the device globally.


DRUG-ELUTING BALLOON CATHETERS MARKET GROWTH FACTORS


Increasing Prevalence of Heart Diseases to Increase the Demand for Drug-eluting Balloon Catheters


Globally, the prevalence of peripheral and coronary heart diseases, including heart arrhythmias, heart failure, heart valve disease, and pericardial disease has been increasing at a faster pace.



  • As per CDC, in the U.S., coronary heart disease is the most common type of heart disease, killing 382,820 people in 2020. About 20.1 millions of adults aged 20 and older suffered from coronary artery disease in the U.S.


Cigarette smoking and diet high in trans-fat, saturated fats, and cholesterol are the major causes of coronary and peripheral artery diseases.



  • In July 2020, according to the article of NCBI, active and passive smoke exposure caused more than 30.0% of coronary heart disease, which led to an increasing number of angioplasty surgeries and enhanced the product demand in this market.


Drug-eluting balloon catheters are indicated during the angioplasty procedures to treat blocked or narrowed coronary arteries. Therefore, the increase in angioplasty surgeries is expected to increase the demand for these catheters.



  • In March 2021, according to the NCBI article, over 965,000 angioplasties were performed in the U.S.


Furthermore, the market players have increased their emphasis on research and development for the launch of advanced catheters. This is expected to increase the accessibility of these products among the patient population.



  • In July 2021, Medtronic launched the Prevail drug-coated balloon (DCB) catheter in Europe for coronary artery disease. This product launch is expected to expand the product offerings of these catheters in Europe.


Such high incidences of heart diseases are expected to fuel the demand for these catheters in the long run.


Higher Efficiency Associated with Drug-eluting Balloon Catheter Over Drug-eluting Stents to Increase the Demand for these Catheters


Drug-eluting balloon catheters through minimally invasive surgery deliver an anti-proliferative drug into the vessel wall without implanting a stent. These devices are a promising technique in the treatment of coronary artery disease.


The positive results related to safety and efficacy of these catheters angioplasty in the treatment of diseases such as in-stent restenosis, high bleeding risk, and small-vessel disease has been shown in several research studies.  Moreover, by the use of these catheters, limitations associated with drug–eluting stents such as incomplete stent apposition, adverse drug interactions, and increased in-stent thrombosis rates can be eliminated.


Therefore, the increasing preference for minimally invasive cardiac surgeries and advantages associated with the use of these catheters over drug-eluting stents have been increasing its demand.
